17 Nov Hardie ruled out of Autumn Test campaign

Back-row John Hardie has been ruled out of the remainder of Scotland’s 2016 Autumn Test campaign through injury.

The 13-times capped Edinburgh Rugby loose forward had corrective surgery at Spire Murrayfield Hospital today (Thursday) on the ankle he sprained during the national team’s narrow loss to Australia last weekend.

He will return to the care of his club’s medical team and is expected to be out of action for up to eight weeks.
